Glad to hear you’re on top of it! I just hate the thought of burnt-out graphics cards. XD

Oh I know, that's a pretty terrifying phrase. I'm deliberately being careful because if I kill it somehow, I won't be getting another one for a long time.

wow!!! I never saw this before : 3

Hidden Springs is notorious for rainbows, but I've never seen four at once before!

Totally random, but the view of the sunset from my hotel room was pretty!

Too many fps can burn out your graphics card, so be careful.

Yup, I know, but thanks for the warning! I've been monitoring it and seeing how it is handling different games, because I worry a lot about stuff like that. It's been staying pretty cool, which makes me happy. It's been around 30-40° C when not under load, and it peaked at about 67° when I was playing Bioshock Infinite, which is about the most demanding game I have, and TS3 was much cooler. Anything hotter than that starts to worry me, anyway. :S 

/sobbing because Create-A-Sim runs at 130 fps now... before I got 20 if I was lucky. 

I feel like such a professional simmer/gamer now.
